a)

To calculate: The probability that there is exactly one person among 12 who has Type B blood.

The probability that there is exactly one person among 12 who has Type B blood is 0.3663.

Given:

The percentage of people with type B bloodp=11%=0.11 .

The total number of donors n=12

Concept used:

A probability distribution where each trial has two possible outcomes known as a success and failure, each trial is independent and the probability of each trial is the same, then to calculate the probability of a certain number of successes occurring, a binomial probability distribution is used as shown below

P(X=k)=nkpk(1−p)n−k

where k is the number of successes, n is the number of trials and p is the probability of success.

Calculation:

Consider, X be the random variable that shows the number of people that has Type B blood is following the binomial distribution.

The probability that there is exactly one person among 12 who has Type B blood is calculated as shown below

P X=1 = 12 1 (0.11) 1 (1−0.11) 12−1 =12!1!12−1!×0.111×0.8911=0.36632

Conclusion:

The required probability is 0.3663 (rounded to 4 decimal places).

b)

To calculate: The probability that there are at least two donors among 12 who have Type B blood.

The probability that there are at least two donors among 12 who have Type B blood is 0.3867.

Calculation:

The probability that there are at least two donors among 12 who have Type B blood is calculated using the logic that sum of all probabilities in a probability distribution is 1, as shown below:

PX≥2=P(X=2)+P(X=3)+..+P(X=12)PX≥2+PX≤1=1PX≥2=1−P(X≤1)PX≤1=P(X=0)+P(X=1) = 12 0 (0.11) 0 (1−0.11) 12−0 + 12 1 (0.11) 1 (1−0.11) 12−1 =12!0!12−0!×0.110×0.8912+12!1!12−1!×0.111×0.8911=0.613313PX≥2=1−P(X≤1)=1−0.613313=0.386687

Conclusion:

The probability that there are at least two donors among 12 who have Type B blood is about 0.3867 (rounded to 4 decimal places).
